Preference for what?

1. If you have a preference for something, you would like to have or do that thing rather than something else. e.g. It upset her when men revealed a preference for her sister. 2.If you give preference to someone with a particular qualification or feature, you choose them rather than someone else. e.g. The Pentagon has said it will give preference to companies with which it can do business electronically.

Preference? The meaning is to like something more than something else: I prefer having a shower in the mornings, rather than having it in the evenings. :-)

It is a word that means "what you want more than the other options." You can have preferences about everything from food, colors, what to do, read, watch, be.... anything and everything.
